Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain for a classic flavor, vanilla for a hint of sweetness)

1/2 cup pure cocoa powder (unsweetened for a rich chocolate taste)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your preferred sweetness level)

1 tsp vanilla extract (for enhanced flavor)

1/2 cup unsalted pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped (to add a delightful crunch)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for chocolate lovers)

Pinch of salt (to balance the flavors)

Silicone muffin cups or silicone ice cube trays (for easy release)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Using a whisk, blend all ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.

    Incorporate the Pistachios and Chocolate: Carefully fold in the chopped pistachios and mini chocolate chips (if using) into the yogurt mixture with a spatula. Gently mix to make sure the nuts and chips are evenly distributed without overmixing.

      Fill Your Molds: Using a spoon, carefully fill each silicone muffin cup or ice cube tray with the yogurt mixture, making sure to fill them about three-quarters full. Smooth out the tops with a spatula or the back of a spoon for a neat finish.

        Freeze the Delights: Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Serve with Style: Once frozen, gently pull the yogurt cups out of the molds. You can serve them as is or arrange them on a decorative serving platter for an appealing presentation.

            Add a Final Touch (Optional): For an extra flavor boost and visual appeal, drizzle a bit of honey over the top or sprinkle additional chopped pistachios just before serving.

              Storage Instructions: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer. These delights can be kept for up to two weeks. For the best texture, let them sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before enjoying.
